Interviewer instructions
Directions: Both enumerators will arrive at the CBCC before it opens on an unannounced visit. After introducing themselves to the CG(s), they will prepare to observe the CBCC activities for 1 hour (continuous) before then completing the questionnaire together. The following protocol should be followed:
- Observation starts after the CBCC has opened and when a majority of children have arrived. Enumerators should ask the CG(s) for total number of expected children beforehand. When more than half have arrived, enumerator may begin the observation. In the case that there is very low attendance that day, the enumerator should begin the observation when the CG appears to start the planned activities for the day.
- Enumerators should position themselves to be out of the way of classroom activities, but still able to see what is going on at the CBCC. This may require that the enumerators move around during the observation to stay out of the way or get a better understanding of what is going on. However, the enumerators should move around as little as possible, as this is disruptive to the class and may call more attention to them.
- The observation form should only be completed AFTER the observation period is over and should be a collaboration between both enumerators.
